Description of the problem | Whie driving 2016 expedition el the light came on saying that the brake fluid was low shortly after the brakes went out completely ,pedal went to floor. Thankfully used the emergency brake and down shifting to get car stopped . Was very fortunate. My mechanic checked car -no leaks of brake fluid even thou the system was completely empty. His diagnosis was that the brake booster had failed and that all of the brake fluid was syphoned out and in to the engine. Very scary little warning just complete failure |
